Richmond Hill's Hayden Price posted scores of 76-82 February 15-16 at Innisbrook Resort in Palm Harbor, Florida, to finish 14-over par and win the Girls 16-18 division of the United Golfers Association Initational for the third consecutive year.
Formerly the Jim Thorpe Inviational, the UGA Inviational offered an unprecedented opportunity to elite junior minority golfers and collegiate athletes from from the U.S., Canada and the Caribbean to compete on the Copperhead and Island Golf Courses at Innisbrook Resort, the host of the PGA TOUR’s Valspar Championship. This event was created to honor the 100-year legacy of the United Golfers Association.
Price, who also won this event in 2023 and 2024, finished four strokes ahead of runner up Morgan Rodriguez from Boca Raton, Fla., to become the first three-time winner of the event.
